KATHMANDU: Parliament proceedings continued on Thursday despite ongoing obstruction by opposition parties.
After Speaker Dol Prasad Aryal decided to move the meeting forward despite the disruption, Finance Minister Dr Swarnim Wagle began responding to questions raised during discussions on the government’s policy and programme.
Opposition lawmakers have continued chanting slogans and banging on desks in protest throughout the debate.
